1) What will be taught? Each week we will focus on the Fundamentals of Ballet and Jazz. In addition, each week we will learn a Dance Routine. 2) What topics will you cover? In Ballet we will begin class with a warm up (using our imagination), the 5 basic ballet positions, Plié, Passé, Pas de chat (students fan favorite), Bourree, Arabesque, Sauté, Soutenu turn, Rond de jambe, Relevé, Tendu, Ballet Walks, Ballet Runs, Échappé Sauté,Grand Jeté (leaps), Chassé, skipping and galloping, curtsy and more. In creative movement we will play games that work on gross motor skills, and play make believe. This class will cover Jazz: In Jazz we will learn the step phrase "Step Clap", shake our hips, Passé Jumps, and leaps Please Note My START WITH. 8/19: We will Play games. and dance to "Let it go" 8/20: We will Play Games and dance to "Slippery Fish" 8/21:We will Play Games and dance to "butterfly ballet" 8/22: We will Play Games and dance to "airplane" 3) How is your class structured? This ongoing class will be held once a week for 30 min. 5 min warm up 15-20 min of ballet and Jazz Technique and combination and 5-10min of creative movement and games. 4) How will you teach? I will be teaching through a live zoom. I encourage all students to have their video camera and microphone on, but it is not required. 5) What's your teaching style? I use a very creative and engaging approach while teaching dance. Every step we do can be related to imaginative play. Such as a “Spank” in tap is like scooping ice cream off the floor. Or we will be going on adventures through the Jungle, being chefs, or catching butterfly on our ballet stretching journey. I also name my left and right sides to avoid confusion. Your right side is named “Sally” and your left side is named “Johnny”. 6) How much will learners get to interact with you and each other (mention specifics like: lecture, games, slides, video clips, discussion)? Throughout class we will be interacting as a group: like counting out loud, singing songs, and playing games. Also each child will have an opportunity to tell me what they are imagining while doing the steps. I always play fair and allow each student to have an opportunity to speak. 7) Any required experience or knowledge learners need? No experience is required. Students will be participating in a physical fitness/movement activities though out the class. Please be aware that your child can end up injuring themselves. Therefore please make sure your child has sufficient dance space, proper foot ware (choice of ballet shoes, barefoot, tap shoes, and/or sneakers). In addition, I encourage all students to have a water bottle near by and is warmed up before class to avoid injury’s. Parental supervision is strongly encourage to help your dancer assure there safety and spatial awareness.
Learning Goals
Each child will develop/work on their gross motor skills like marching, balancing on one foot, and flexibility. In addition they will be working on cognitive development such as listening and following directions, and learning a dance combination.
